Telegraph Road - Dire Straits

Well a long time ago,
came a man on a track
Walking thirty miles
with a sack on his back
And he put down his load
where he thought it was the best
He made a home in the wilderness
He built a cabin and a winter store
And he ploughed up the ground
by the cold lake shore
And the other travellers
came walking down the track
And they never went further,
no they never went back
Then came the churches,
then came the schools
Then came the lawyers,
then came the rules
Then came the trains
and the trucks with their loads
And the dirty old track
was the Telegraph Road
Then came the mines,
then came the ore,
Then there was the hard times,
then there was a war
Telegraph sang a song
about the world outside
Telegraph Road got so deep and so wide
Like a rolling river
And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
People driving home from the factories
There's six lanes of traffic
Three lanes moving slow
I used to like to go to work
but they shut it down
I've got a right to go to work
but there's no work here to be found
Yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
We're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed
And the birds up on the wires
and the telegraph poles
They can always fly away
from this rain and this cold
You can hear them singing
out their telegraph code
All the way down the Telegraph Road
Well I'd sooner forget,
but I remember those nights
Yeah, life was just a bet
on a race between the lights
You had your head on my shoulder,
you had your hand in my hair
Now you act a little colder
like you don't seem to care
But just believe in me,
baby, and I'll take you away
From out of this darkness
and into the day
From these rivers of headlights,
these rivers of rain
From the anger that lives
on the streets with these names
'Cause I've run every
red light on memory lane
I've seen desperation
explode into flames
And I don't want to see it again
From all of these signs saying
"Sorry, but we're closed",
All the way down the Telegraph Road.
